I am deeply saddened. It is with a heavy heart,
I tell you, my father passed away this week.
I am grateful I had a nice phone conversation with him the night before he passed. I will always treasure that.
My dad was one of a kind. He was a veteran. A Navy man. He was witty and wise,
highly opinionated. He loved his family with all his heart. He kept up with
technology navigating a smart phone and the internet. He never missed a New Years Eve or birthday
without calling. He would call at exactly
2pm (the time I was born) for my birthday every year and at midnight for New
Years Eve. He worked in the television
business for over 40 years. He saw a lot of changes in this old world. I will miss skyping and text messaging with
him. I love you daddy. Rest in peace.

I'm so sorry for your loss sweet lady, sending prayers your way.
My heart is breaking for you and I got teary-eyed when reading this. At devastating times like this, mere words seem useless.
I'm deeply sorry for your loss. Your Father was a treasure. You will always have his memory in your heart - and his love.
Take care.
So sorry for your loss; I lost my Daddy 8 months ago and it still is hard to believe. But do believe he lives on in my heart, as your Daddy will with you, forever in our memories. I know you will miss him every day. My prayers to you and your family during this sad time.
You have my sincerest sympathies at this very sorrowful time. May he rest in peace.

Taryterre, I'm so sorry to hear your Father passed away. It sounds like you and him were close. How special that he called every year on your birthday at the hour you were born. You had a wonderful father for many years, and you can take comfort in that. Thinking of you today, Taryterre, and wishing you a Happy Easter.

Dear Taryterre...Oh, my dear friend, my heart goes out to you. It is never easy to lose a parent. I am sure your Dad is now resting peacefully in the other realm of life. But Taryterre, it is never, ever easy for those left behind. May the Lord comfort you and let you know that your father will live now, forever, in your heart. Hugs. Susan
I really hate that for you. I am so so sorry. It is hard to lose a parent. I will be sending you a hug and prayer.
I hope your sadness abates over time. Well, it doesn't but I wish it would.
Thank you for the birthday wishes, Taryterre. And don't you have a birthday in May also? I thought you did, so Happy Birthday to you as well. : )

Happy Fourth of July Taryterre! Not doing anything special tonight. I'll just watch some fireworks from my porch. I can see them in the sky from where I live.
Hope you're doing well.
